Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 ounces bittersweet chocolate (60% cacao), finely chopped
1 3/4 cups marshmallow creme
1/2 cup chocolate-hazelnut spread
3 tablespoons caramel sundae syrup
Nonstick cooking spray, for the spatulas

Steps:

  • Add half of the chocolate to a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, whisking in between each, until the chocolate is melted, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining chocolate and continue to whisk until smooth; this will result in a tempered chocolate that will appear glossy when set. Transfer 1/4 cup of the tempered chocolate to a small bowl; set aside.
  • Divide the remaining chocolate between the 2 halves of a 10-inch-tall plastic bunny mold. Tilt the mold halves to swirl the chocolate around until each is coated entirely. Refrigerate until set, about 15 minutes.
  • Add the marshmallow creme, chocolate-hazelnut spread and caramel syrup to a medium bowl and fold with a rubber spatula to combine. Coat 2 small rubber spatulas with nonstick spray and use them to divide the mixture between the mold halves. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • Reheat the reserved 1/4 cup of chocolate in 15-second intervals, whisking in between each, until the chocolate is melted, about 45 seconds. Transfer to a piping bag; snip the tip off to make a 1/8- to 1/4-inch hole. Pipe the melted chocolate around the edge of one of the mold halves. Sandwich both halves together and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  • Carefully unmold and trim away any excess chocolate around the edges if needed.
